It would rule to know more women n Trans ppl who are into modular synths so I can stop being completely ignored by the men who occupy most of the space
this might be a crazy idea but I think if we can't have a program that makes spreadsheet jobs marginally more efficient without also manufacturing csam on an industrial scale or driving people insane and convincing them they should kill their family, we shouldnt have that program
the creator of ELIZA is on record as being pretty upset by knowing how the algorithm worked (seeing as he wrote it) and knowing how he did it, yet having people talk to it convinced it's sentient. it's not! it's just an algorithm! this does not change with thousands of GPUs!
i played with ELIZA chatbots (s/o to doctor sbaisto) and sorry epstein's basilisk worshippers, all LLMs add to the equation is having enough memory and vector processing/GPUs to make ELIZA a bit more impressive of a parlor trick. its not sentient, its not that useful, it just makes digital poop
It is BECAUSE I understand how AI and LLMs work, intimately, that I have no interest in using them. Are there valid uses for LLM-adjacent technologies? Yes, but LLMs themselves are clearly a technological dead-end tech is trying to shove down our throats to recoup its oversized investment.
I literally worked on IBM's Watson and have zero interest in using LLMs for my work. Stop assuming we're all just ignorant. I know more about them than you do. I know more about them than 99% of people on this site do.
me: I will help people learn about this this guy: why, you condescending fuckhead
doc vivi hits the nail on the head here. im not a dummy. i know how computers work. i watched LLMs with interest as they emerged, i know enough about the math to get what's going on, and quickly became disillusioned with how oversold this garbage is. sorry kids, it IS "spicy autocomplete"

How the fuck would Yoda even sing 'Killing In The Name Of?"
goth version and wip flag version maybe ill print both?
what are we thinking chat?
there's discourse about... spreadsheets? Really, spreadsheets? the thing you use to make the computer imps do your bidding? the summoning circle for math devils? the arcane sigil you or a skilled friend cast once to make your job easier forever? they're fine. damn
When I talk about my little music circle On Here IRL, I generally say something along the lines of "assorted queers who periodically release music that makes you hallucinate", & it's occurred to me that some of you might appreciate knowing that (don't worry cishets in the circle, ily as well)
jazz hands imply the existence of jazz wrists and unfortunately, jazz tendonitis
Once you start seeing it through this lens, a remarkable proportion of books, op eds, features, even news pieces can be summarised as "why won't my darling child go back to how they were when they accepted my complete authority over them, before they self-actualised (and got QUEER)"
Lol the New York Times literally went from "being trans is self mutilation" to "cutting off your transphobic parents is self mutilation"
Curious where this level of scolding is when parents cut off their children for being trans or gay, which is a phenomenon that by every metric is far more prevalent.
Lol the New York Times literally went from "being trans is self mutilation" to "cutting off your transphobic parents is self mutilation"
no one called it 'cutting off family' when these same parents threw their gay kids out of the house. wild how that works.
lol come the fuck on

it's funny that all of the "excesses" of woke 1.0 are just something somebody said online that annoyed people
